Why do you use your Mustang as a weekend only car?

[MAGS1]

Enough non Mach 1 owners have chimed in and I haven't seen this as a response yet, so I will toss my hat in. I would really like to drive mine more but I don't because I work on the set of an episode of The Walking Dead.

1. A coworker was on the way back from a site visit when a "vulnerable adult" vomited blood all over his hood and fender.

2. While on site, another coworker had their car broken in to so a "vulnerable adult" had a private place to go number 2. This is apparently quite common there.

3. Yet another coworker was involved in a hit and run, then was involved in another hit and run in his rental. Then after almost 3 months when he finally got his car back, he got hit again in the parking lot.

4. I now take an alternate route home because my primary route is frequently closed due to law enforcement investigating violent crime, abandoned vehicles, and "vulnerable adults" interfering with traffic.

I didn't see a button for that on the survey...

Sounds like a literal $hit show. Jeez

That reads extreme! I added a suitable poll option!

Like anything, I’m pretty desensitized to it from exposure but even I’m surprised every now and then

Bullitt when it’s dry, other one when it rains. Simple

Everyday is a weekend for me - I daily it, even at least for an hour no matter winter or summer. In another thread I said 'I bought it to be driven, not to be parked in the garage' and I stand by that. But honestly, the last couple of days I had some other stuff to do, as I primarily work from home, and I didn't had the chance to drive around, so I miss that so much and I will run it maybe today or tomorrow...

Cars get chips. Cars get scratches. Cars rust. For me my logic is why spend $50k on something I can't enjoy daily?

It's a little much for a daily. Also minimizing the time the sun bakes it.

50k is cheap. It cost me 80k here so that gives it a bit different perspective. Funny aspect I was thinking the other day, would I buy 80k car (Tesla Model 3 or Y) mainly for my wife to commute to work? As that's what our daily is used 90% of time. It'll take years before I decide that question, haha.

Different people have different intentions, some buy these cars, hold on to them for a few years and then sell them and replace for something new. That's fine, car doesn't need PPF or mods or anything but daily driving, and it works. It depreciates but money is no concern then, I guess.

All day, every day, rain or shine....drive it, enjoy it, use it....take care of it, but use it. Life is short, take the plastic off and enjoy.
